TIME

TIME

Time, what a wonder you are!

You heal the deepest cuts inflicted upon us,

You make us forget everything,

The losses and pains which

Had overshadowed us.

You make us realize

The ironies of life;

The pride and arrogance can never gain

Our love and care is what

Earns us our name.  

You fly like a swallow

When we don’t want ‘morrow;

You are as still as the northern star,

When things are in a mess.

Oh! Then how cruel you are.

 You are devastating, devilish, and immortal,

When you destroy the buildings,

The statues and works of great kings.

Yet you are a precious gem,

The most powerful on the earth!

Waiting to be crowned,

By the people around.

Chased by pennywise

~CHASED BY PENNYWISE~

Once a cool night, along with my friends, I was hanging out with them in a nice, amusing circus. I was having a cheerful day with them at the circus. The circus started with a magic show, which was continued by jugglers who were doing nice tricks and were jumping like monkeys. There were even jokers who were making us laugh. Then, a couple of animals were brought on the stage. The audiences were satisfied at the sight of an elephant that was running on a treadmill, tigers were jumping on trampolines and a gorilla was dancing at music. 

I felt a bad feeling during the circus period. The people and even the animals looked like as if they were possessed or hypnotized by some spirit or demon. I am not a crazy brat so I just forgot about it. 

It was now the end of the circus. The last person was a clown, and even the owner of the circus. The clown’s appearance made the audience creeped out. Even the clown’s smile was so creepy; it barely gave me a chill. No sooner I realized the clown was Pennywise, the clown who in 1999, made people to laugh and killed them. He was also known as the evil clown. A while later he asked me to volunteer him. That was probably the worst moment in my life. He asked me to walk on a carpet consisting of 200 spines. I just refused and went back to my own seat.         

Pennywise was a clown who had a white face, a  creepy smile, two cuts over his eyes and a red balloon held on his right hand.

When we were leaving, Mike, my friend, had located Pennywise chasing us. That terrified us. We ran for our lives and headed for Shalk forest. We had escaped but we mistakenly entered the dark and creepy forest of Shalk road, where many paranormal activities had been seen at night.

We ran very quickly so that we would be safe. At around 12 am, we had entered our own houses. After reaching, I had my dinner. I even got a scolding from my mum for living outside till midnight.       

At bed, I had texted my friends Mike, John, and Carl, if they were all alright. Everyone replied me, except John. For a week, he never showed up at his house. He never texted me & never came to school again. It was the right time for us to call 9-1-1.  

The police investigated the case for 2-3 weeks & reported us about the case. They told us that the given location had no clue to Pennywise & our friend John. From that day, John was found missing & I had no idea where Pennywise was.

After that incident day, I always got horrifying dreams about Pennywise carrying John away from me, showing me a very creepy smile.
